    I saw the release on FB. Shorter than a 30rd pmag. Retail listed around $129 if I remember right.
    Fuck you. We're going to Costco.

        They never did follow through with the quad-stack:

        Magpul Invents New Quad-Stack Magazine for ARs ? Daily Bulletin
        http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2010/06/magpul-invents-new-quad-stack-magazine-for-ars/
        Here's an item that should interest 3-Gun and Multi-Gun competitors using AR rifles. Magpul Industries has filed for a patent on a new quad-stack magazine that may hold as many as 60 rounds, yet feed through a normal AR15 mag well.

        Magpul's Quad Stack Magazine -
        http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2010/06/08/magpuls-quad-stack-magazine/
        Magpul has just filed a patent application (#20100126053) for a quad stack AR-15 compatible magazine. The design is quite straight forward. A central partition separates two dual staggered round stacks. Two springs are used, a lower stronger spring and a weaker top spring, which are joined by spring slicer. The magazine has a constant curve … Read More …

          I suspect the quad stack had issues with jamming caused by having 2-3 followers and springs. Loading it may also be an issue

              These should be cool once they come down below $10.

                  Looks like they've got a lot of "cool" stuff coming out like their AK furniture whose video I find pretty damn funny. I especially like the picture of Putin riding a bear and the specialized advisers



                  Also digging the Remington 700 furniture as well as the video. Very cool.

                            I believe they are quad but metal mags.

                              Interesting. Pretty cool. But 60rds? Why 60? Surefire 60rds are cheaper, lighter, and.... better? Either way I'm on board, the price is too much, but fuck it, I'll ruin an upper with them.

                              I thought the surefires were three stacks, and they are metal like Jose said.

                              As for the AK furniture.. kind of disappointed. Why couldn't they just make a modern standard fixed stock like they did on the 870 model? I'll never buy that shit, that's for sure. But wood is the reason why I like AK's, remove the wood and they're boring, imho.
